Photographed in a Convenience Store

 


It's all about the tie.

When Bob D of Pittsfield MA died - many years ago - his wife Ruth D gave me his collection of ties.

The only one I wear is this Christmas tie.  I intended to ask my hosts at Christmas Day to take a photo' but forgot.

So, on my way home I asked the clerk in a convenience store to do so.

Why?  Every year I send a photo' of me wearing the tie to Sally M, B and R's daughter.

It's an annual mark of my memory of her parents.

I could have taken him home for what would have been his last two to three possible miserable days but I  decided to say goodbye to Zion there and then.  I stayed with him to the end at 2:00 p.m. I am in shock.  I am grateful for six fantastic years together.  I rejoice that he brought joy to so many people. His remains will be returned to me to be buried near my home, with a flowering shrub planted over them. Thanks for your care John Michael Povey Hello Michael,   I will show you the images when you arrive but essentially what we see on the CT is that he has multiple masses on his spleen and several in his lungs, additionally he has flui

Cousins, second cousins, third cousins A joyful and relaxed family reunion. Super food. Great food for children with activities for them too, including face painting. This 80-year-old child wore a birthday coronet and insisted on having his face painted. A marvelous family reunion; and the greatest celebration of my four score years.
